These are my numbers written down by my Doctor it shows a progression over the past 2 echos in a 10 month period, he says now is the time for surgery ! Can anyone give me some feedback? Thank you

Tom Everson Hi I am not a Doctor. My interruption of the numbers you provided is that you have severe aortic stenosis( narrow opening. Like a build up in a pipe ). MG ( to me ) is a mean transvalvular gradient when above 40 means
Your aortic valve is getting too narrow. A AVA below 1 cm (peak aortic velocity) is usually associated with stenosis. When I had a aortic valve replacement my MG went fro 41to 55
You can always get a second opinion and verify all the results .In my case I had to be assured I had a problem, then had to find a Heart Team that I was comfortable with ,then put it in the hands of the Lord. The whole process takes time but IT WORKS. STAY CONFIDENT AND TRUST YOUR TEAM AND ASK FOR SUPPORT from your family and friends.

Tom Everson Yes I was asymptomatic. My bicuspid valve was full of calcium ( should be the size of a dime) but the surgeon said it was smaller than a pencil point. I was 77 at surgery ( now almost 81). Every thing went smooth . I had low blood pressure ( barley 90) after the surgery now am averaging 101 and are pretty active ( my view point) Only take a low dose aspirin every day. Good luck and lean on your support team and the LORD

Andy Parker Thanks everybody for your response to my comments and yes the SAVR would be covered but not TAVR, I just was praying for TAVR, all my dr’s say I’m a perfect candidate but insurance says NO and they will only pay for SAVR my wife is disabled and it will be hard to navigate 6-8 weeks downtime!
